Innovation: What Does it Really Mean in Schools?
Learning in most conventional education settings is a passive experience: The students listen. But at the most innovative schools, classes are ‘hands-on,’ and students are creators, not mere consumers. They acquire skills and knowledge while solving a problem, creating a product or generating a new understanding. – Tony Wagner

What it means to be an engineer
The word engineer comes from the same root as the word ingenuity, and describe someone who uses their ingenuity, their knowledge of science and maths, and their ability to deal with complexity to design solutions to problems.
It is also acceptable to refer to someone who is in charge of an engine as an engineer, although that use of the word has fallen out of fashion as engines have become simpler to operate.
